FACTORY
(i) Main office- Nucleus- A nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell's chromosomes.
(ii) Office wall- Nuclear membrane- A nuclear membrane is a double membrane that encloses the cell nucleus.
(iii) Area surrounding the main office- Cytoplasm- Cytoplasm is a thick solution that fills each cell and is enclosed by the cell membrane.
(iv) Production units- Ribosomes- A ribosome is a cellular particle made of RNA and protein that serves as the site for protein synthesis in the cell.
(v) Supply channels- Endoplasmic reticulum- Endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes inside a cell through which proteins and other molecules move.
(vi) Recycling units- Lysosomes- A lysosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes.
(vii) Powerhouse- Mitochondria- Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions.
(viii) Boundary wall of the factory- Cell wall- A cell wall is a structural layer surrounding some types of cells, just outside the cell membrane.
(ix) Packaging unit- Golgi apparatus- A Golgi apparatus, is a cell organelle that helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules.
